In The Air Tonight by

[@Pomplamoose]

Is this the cover of #InTheAirTonight you’ve been waiting for all your life?

[@Bassizam]

The CEO of Patreon and CEO of the dancefloor ❤😂

[@budtrom]

It isn't because it needed Nataly. No disrespect to India, she's incredible, but Nataly is Pomplamoose and Pomplamoose is Nataly...

[@LonesomeTwin]

Jeez no. Have you even heard/seen the original? You know, the one with the ethereal guitar and the heartfelt rending pain in the lyrics all leading slowly up to the most iconic drum break in music? No, you thought, we'll strip all that good stuff out in favor of a bland synthotech beat and a singer who thinks its a lullaby. Pomplamoose has done some awesome covers (7 Nation Army/Eurythmics anyone?) but this is *not* the way forward.

[@Bassizam]

@@LonesomeTwin Alright I gotta agree with the Nataly missing. She was the heart and soul of the band.

[@stevebarlow3154]

Sorry but no! Whilst I've loved virtually everything Pomplamoose has done over the years and most, but not all, of Scary Pockets, Magaziine is an experiment that hasn't worked. It is bland and anaemic. You are wasting the talents of India, who with Scary Pockets and 'Creep' did perhaps the best cover version of any song I have ever heard.

[@dr.s.]

Just imagine you are a drummer, they have you play In the Air Tonight and you are not allowed to do THE drum thing. I would be soooo disappointed 😂

[@davidpach77pacheco97]

exatamente kkkkkkk

[@pruft]

I love pomplamoose... They're the only band I support on patreon (just to show how much i love it)... But I have to agree with you... THE drum thing is definitely missing...

[@alexcrouse]

I also don't know why they changed the cadence of a song by a famous drummer. It sounds good, but just wrong. The low bass is very welcome to build the power and feel, but the beat just does not fit at all.

[@dr.s.]

​@@pruft don't know if I miss it, I think it wouldn't really fit this version. But I am so sorry for the poor drummer boy, he was waiting for this moment...

[@everpuremusic]

@@alexcrouse It is very unexpected. And there could have been a place for the drum roll of all drum rolls as a drop after the middle part. But I think it definitely works in this context. Magaziine are taking this to another place - and you don't have to like it, but it's definitely well thought through.

[@DerBasti]

Pomplamoose's music has gotten me through a really dark time, and I'm so grateful for every song. Each second of their music has transported me to a better and more beautiful time, if only for a moment. Thank you, Pomplamoose, for giving me that escape through your incredible music.

[@tunateun]

Gone is the melody, the great buildup, the drum fill, the feeling. I'm sorry but this is the middest thing ever.

[@jimr4354]

Totally agree. It's just plain awful. A morose meandearing, droning and lacklustre version.

[@marirose19]

@tunatuen Just as you shouldn't compare yourself to others, each individual's or group's artistry should stand on its own. Phil Collins did his incredible original artistic rendition of this. Leave this group to choose a different way. I'm sure Phil would be honored or think bollocks.

[@tunateun]

@@marirose19 also without comparing this song to others, it's still a boring song

[@Stanley_Streamer]

​@@marirose19he's not wrong though.

[@BytebroUK]

I've never before disagreed with you all, but NO. _In The Air Tonight_ was not ever meant to be played as a 4:4 thing - sounds awful like that. IMO, of course!

[@jimr4354]

So true. There's songs that can be reproduced that are really as good or better than the original. This isn't one of them. Check out Phil's version of The Beatles Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight and The End. That's really shows how it's done. Powerful material.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Great playing, terrific singing BUT where's the angst, the ANGER? Completely misses the point of this amazing song. Felt more like lift music

[@bacca71]

Exact;y!

[@jimr4354]

Spot on !!!

[@fyrstikken]

No passion, no grit, just profit in mind, Music as hollow as the soul you can’t find.

[@azzaKaiapoi]

As others have commented, if you forget the original exists its actually a pretty funky thing. So weirdly, the best way to listen to it is to not associate it back to Phil's oringal, but take it as it's own thing.... except of course it's not.

[@jimr4354]

This version does not really make sense. Does anyone listen to the lyrics? This isn't some love song. One that can be rearranged. It's a really deranged vocal let alone the way it's expressed.

[@cooldebt]

@Aaron Schultz Agree. And it really depends what the point of the cover is. These guys like to change it up so on its own it works and whether we like it or not is probably a matter of taste. It’s like The Consouls covering Mute City (from F-Zero) as smooth jazz in complete contrast to the original. You could ask why but equally, why not?

[@jimr4354]

@@cooldebt sounds like a case of sit on the fencitis. It’s outright elevator music at best. You can’t take the texture out of a song (it’s an angry piece of songwriting)and wrap into some wishwash of bland techno crap sung in a bizarre way and not having relevance to the original content. It just doesn’t work. I hope Phil doesn’t hear it. He’d be appalled.

[@cooldebt]

@@jimr4354 I love the original (it's hard to top something associated with teen nostalgia plus it's Phil) and this cover is not my favourite from this band but I think we should take it at face value 😉

[@jimr4354]

@@cooldebt Fair enough. The Moose and The Magazine have produced some great material but this ain't it. It does have an atmospheric element to it at times but like so many comment here, it misses the mark.

[@neilcampbell8499]

Is Magazine a different band with cross over members? 🤔 noticed from the thumbnail nataly was missing? Sorry am new to these guys.. quality cover though 👌

[@tonta182]

That Prophet 6 makes it Stranger things Tonight!

[@DanielSubotnik]

Absolutely love the creative spin on this classic. However, it's missing the most iconic part of the song. The drums at the end. I was really hoping to hear that mixed in this version.

[@Stanley_Streamer]

Caveat, before anyone lights me up...just stumbled upon this group today, going through my waaaay to stoned to be subscribing to subscribes from last night and about to high-five my mini-McCaw for actually somehow picking a wimner when my hogher self, no not like new agey ragey higher self, I mean 2 spliffs into the day hogher self was like hey dude watch just one more, which was actually my chaise longue self cuz high fiving a bird suddenly seemed a bit ambitious at the time... Moral of the authentic frontier gibberish is, I like these guys A LOT, like no I mean A LOT A LOT and was really just binge watching their vids, until this one, deadass, hope I wasn't too late for the save..???

[@jayare6804]

[@c4cullen09]

Do you think 3 keyboards was enough guys? I'm thinking you need at least 3 more

[@Pomplamoose]

Never enough.

[@calzonexiv]

While it's definitely an interesting take on the song, and I applaud you guys for not being afraid to try and create new narratives when doing your covers, This is one where you really can't do that without essentially killing the very thing that makes the song so memorable. It needs that sort of "I've been obsessively waiting for a chance to take you out" energy, with the sort of empty echo-ness of the vocals that highlights that energy which then comes to a head when the drums go hard near the end. India's voice is lovely, and quite honestly if someone who had never heard the original heard this, I can see it being enjoyed (and maybe that's the demographic you were aiming for with this?). But for anyone who knows the original....it just doesn't really do it justice.

[@waterdropssify]

Agree with this comment, it's a very brave cover and interesting but it sounds so "pop" and generic it loses all qualities that made the original great.

[@David_Thompson]

Great vocals by India Carney!

You guys have some brilliant ingenuity, and if I didn't know this was a cover of In The Air Tonight, I wouldn't bat an eye. But knowing that it's a cover, I'm sorely disappointed. In my opinion, if you had used your own lyrics and released an original instead, this would've turned out much better.

[@ruudvansteenis]

I skip every 'magaziine' video on the pomplamoose channel!

[@LazyJacques]

Kind of unforgivable, really. I love this band, but I can't believe they thought this could be covered without it. I kept waiting, thinking "ok, they've moved it somewhere, and they'll surprise me... any minute... ok, you might slot it in heeeee- nope..." I just kept waiting, for what felt like all my life, but it never came. The greatest drum fill to ever fill, Phil's fill. A great vibe, otherwise, but still, without the fill, it's boo. Boo, Pamplamoose. Boo.

[@miguelb.s.7443]

My favorite song performed by my favorite group. Only Elise Trouw was missing on drums.

[@lapointdaniel]

Elise would kill it on a cover of this tune, in every way.

[@drumunl]

In order to get the double-time dance beat to work, you had to really slow down the tempo, and it feels like the lyrics are dragging. That and the fact that you covered a song with the most recognizable drum solo in history and removed that drum solo make this a tough sell.

[@Андрій-ъ6й]

Отлично, пацанва!!!!!!!!!

[@atlev]

this is such a good version but it needs the drum solo 😢

[@jimr4354]

Not really sure how that would be possible here..without actually destroying the structure of this sleepy version.

[@p_mouse8676]

From a creative point of view, I don't think it doesn't need to be the exact drum solo, but at least something that resembles it somehow.

[@PhonoDirect]

@@p_mouse8676LOL. You just didn't get it, dude.

[@guitchess]

Sorry, but I'm not with you on this one. The wispy vocal/smooth feel doesn't capture the emotion of this song. I'm all for juxtaposition, but there's a limit. When you've heard it done the "right" way, it's hard to accept it any other way. Regardless, love the music. love the vids. Thanks

[@user-cv8ud8qo9f]

Really great version ... brings it properly up to date, but your vocalist (India?) is too low in the mix, she got a gorgeous, breathy voice that's being drowned out by the instrumentation (which is excellent but that voice needs to come through ... the vocal is always the bit people focus on!)

[@jimr4354]

...and that's why this version is so wrong and misrepresentative of the original. "I've been waiting for this moment" for this song to finish! Check out the background and see how ridiculous this version is sung. Makes no sense at all.

[@error9900]

If this was any other song, it would be okeyish i guess.

@@joshkrato That’s fine. I accept everyone’s taste is different and different generations have different views. Sometimes different versions are even better than the original but this isn’t one of them. It’s so far off the mark, it’s not funny. It’s a complete non event compared to the original. Real lollipop stuff compared to a compelling piece of songwriting with the bitter undertone to the song with the iconic drum fill to highlight the pent up anger. There’s none of that here. You can’t sing these words in a techno pop song and have real impact. As someone mentioned here, if this was an original, it may have had relevance. It’s a 3 minute song which really doesn’t give it time for that meaning.
